Um, last I checked, Mu was an excellent Natural pilot, Bogart.

He's some kind of mutant, so he don't count.

Rising Dragon · 2014-10-18, 10:17

... mutant? How on Earth do you figure he's a mutant?

He has ESP or something like that. Le Creuset had it and so did Kira, but Kira is a designer baby so technically doesn't qualify.

Rising Dragon · 2014-10-18, 11:01

If it's something he acquired from birth, with no genetic modification, Mu still qualifies as a Natural.

Deadpool2000 · 2014-10-18, 12:26

He fits the CE definition of Natural (ie NOT Coordinator. Even the Extendeds are technically Naturals) but what I think Bogart is going for is that he isn't natural. As in, normal. He has abilities beyond normal humans.

It WOULD be weird though. With Extendeds, and Coordinators, Seed-bearers and semi Newtypes running around, to have a good old fashioned regular human compete...

Rising Dragon · 2014-10-18, 12:28

Arguably CE's best Natural pilots are Lowe Gear and Gai Murakumo. We've only got tiny animated shorts of those two, though.

Deadpool2000 · 2014-10-18, 13:47

Right. They aren't in the main show. And I think it'd be pretty weird if they were shown to be even with the likes of Shinn... Or Mu... Or Yzak.

I guess they might be able to beat the girls. Luna and Cagalli don't get a lot of good showings, but one is still a red on the Minerva and the other has the Seed so it's sort of an unknown.

Gai is a coordinator.

Rising Dragon · 2014-10-18, 16:17

I stand corrected.

Skye629 · 2014-10-28, 02:55

Fukuda himself said that in his infamous Gunota interview (in reference to Mu and Rau). They were the "last Newtypes". Mind you this was before Destiny was made so Kira was probably added to that list.

Rising Dragon · 2014-10-28, 18:33

Which would make it a retcon. Christ, he made a lot of those.

Quote in question:

Quote:

Q: Are Mwu and Raww Newtypes?
A: Both are the last remaining Newtypes. They were the last Newtypes in the world so I wanted to write a story where non-Newtype people try to solve the problem.

...and then he made Kira a Newtype too who can magically solve all problems by himself.

No, he didn't.

Wild Goose · 2014-10-28, 20:58

You can be naturally not normal. :V

Still, the SRW games class Mu as a Newtype, though I suspect that's mostly game mechanics. Still. *shrug*

actually more than likely he did, as he is able to sense other newtypes in destiny Neo(Mu) and Rey(clone of Mu's newtype father), i mean there is more than enough evidence in destiny that can prove kira is a newtype or atleast is becoming one, unless you talking about magically solve problems yeah he didn't

Mu's never been a Newtype in SRW actually. Neither has any Seed character for that matter.

What does Destiny have to do with it? Kira was sensing Rau by the end of Seed...
